TESTING THE ARROW DESIGN
Wind tunnel and free flight models were used extensively
in testing and refining the Arrow design. This video shows the construction and
use of these high precision models. Eleven free flight models were launched
between Dec. 1954 and Jan. 1957. Nike rocket boosters were used to launch the
models and nine models were launched at Point Petre out over Lake Ontario and
two were launched at Langley Field in Virginia. Also included in this video is
the film "The Avro Arrow's First Flight" which documents Arrow 201's first
flight on March 25, 1959. 43vid08....... $20.95 (CDN) |
